Yeah I was rooting for Massa (I find him infinitely more likable than Lewis), so watching that slow Toyota get run down on the last turn was disappointing. Still, Lewis deserved the championship just as much as Massa did.

It's funny, from Lewis' first few races, I thought I'd be a huge fan of his. After watching his antics for the last few years, he's probably my least favorite driver. He just rubs me the wrong way.

Masa, you're kidding me - "Mr i've no personality" Find me a race that he has excited in any way

What does excite me is Vettel, put those 2 in competitive cars next year and we just may have an awesome season. He took Lewis fair and square and almost killed his championship, colour me shocked.

I like Felipe because he always seems to respond in the proper way. He's very typical Brazilian F1 in that way, very affable and a good teammate.

I am a Vettel fan as well. Reminds me of a young (er... younger) Alonso. If I was building an F1 team, those would be my two drivers (Alonso/Vettel), no doubt in my mind. I actually really like both STR drivers and am disappointed to find Vettel in the 'better' Red Bull team next year. I thought he brought a lot of good out of Bourdais.

That was a fantastic race (finally, it seems most F1 races are on the whole boring). When Vettel passed Hamilton I couldn't believe it. I'm with Tals on Lewis as well, something about his racing style/manner bothers me and I was hoping for a Massa win if only to see the local crowd go beserk (more so than the were already). So sad to see Glock run down with less than 1/4 of a lap to go, high drama in Brazil. I wouldn't want Alonso on my team, his actions at Mclaren last year were bush league. Vettel is going to get a Ferrari ride one day soon I'd guess. I wonder if he will try to stay at Toro Rosso instead of moving onto the Red Bull "senior" team, they have that car running so well now and it was a joke at the start of the season.

Exciting closing to the F1 season. I was hoping that Massa could win the championship somehow and it almost happened. I have been a fan of his for years. He could of put this season away with a couple of races to go but the team and car let him down.

Vettel is an up and coming star. Interesting what he will do with Red Bull next year and where ever he ends up after that. Probably be at McClaren or Ferrari in a couple of years. Also great to see a resurgance of Renault in the second half but then BMW/Sauber faded.

What is the future of F1? Toro Rosso is up for sale and without a buyer. Ferrari talking of leaving F1. Could be a very different season next year with very few cars.

Really the perfect ending to the season, even if I am a Massa/Ferrari fan. It doesn't get any better than that coming down to the final lap of the final race.

Really wish we would see a driver shake up next year but it appears we aren't going to. I would like to see Alonso, as much as I dislike him, in a competitive car. Kimi needs to go to a lesser team, and Vettel needs to get a much better seat, like Raikkonen's.

Supposedly the cars are going to be a lot different next year though? Maybe we will see some other teams challenge?

Kimi was disappointing this year while Massa was much improved (although the team as a whole was miserable and they lost the championship by making stupid mistakes). Never been a fan of him and was disappointed when he went to Ferrari. I never get the feeling he really cares, he's just living the rock star life and that's all that matters. I would love to see one of the younger drivers get a chance with a real car, make things even more interesting next year.

Gellar is the Massa lover I think Lewis is awesome personally, wheras I can't think of a race which massa has excited me I can think of a load where Lewis has.

Vettel is the first person i've seen come close to Lewis in a 1 to 1 and that is excellent for next season.

And the most disappointing moment was David Coultard (sp?) getting punted in the first corner thereby depriving us of video from his helmet cam . That was a very cool shot and really made the car seem like it was in a video game.

Hamilton is possibly one of the best drivers ever. History will tell. I'll dig a video of Hamilton on top gear where he was amazing in a standard car driving in the wet

Tals

Well you're a Brit... of course you love Lewis. I can't blame you for that. If he was American, I'd think he was the greatest thing since sliced bread. You all once thought Jens was a terrific driver too

I've been to London a number of times and work with Brits on a daily basis. You very much ARE that way. This is not a bad thing.

Well i'm not sure where we're going with this but generally when someone is on the up they get loads of support and at the top they get lots kicking. I'll stick to my guns that as soon as Jenson started racing it was pretty clear that he wasn't going to do anything special. Likewise for Coultard. Even Hill didn't get that much kudos - I think as much for his generally unexciting driving style. Mansell got loads of kudos but more on the sheer effort he gave.

I'm looking forward to Alonso getting a good car at some point. You have to assume Vettel and Kubica will also get good rides. Alonso, Vettel, Kubica, Lewis, and Massa all in relatively competitive cars would be a dream season to watch.

They are all great drivers, though I'd have to give the edge to Alonso in terms of getting the most out of his car. The guy won two races in THE FUCKING RENAULT this year. That's amazing. That car at the start of the season was an utter piece of shit and for him to put it in the winner's circle twice is nothing short of astonishing.

So Lewis came first and his team mate came 7th. So Lewis did well in the same carMassa and Kimi are together so they could both be awesome but at the same time the car was obviously the best one.Alonso also performed well against his team mate.Vettel did very well his team mate only got 4 points

So for me i'd put it even stevens with Vettel , Alonso and Hamilton. All will push for a win so if we can have the 3 of them in competitive cars that will be awesome.

Be an interesting season as long as Ferrari don't try and ruin the party

Yeah I'd say the differences between all five of the top drivers on my list is very slight. They have different driving styles, but in reality they would all be very competitive with each other given similar cars.

Personally I cheer for anyone but Ferrari. It's too much like cheering for the Yankees or Manchester United.

Oi!!!...GIT!! ...Red Devils forever

having watched F1 for ..well i think since Senna died at least anyway,i love F1,but a lot of people i know hated it because Shuey was winning all the time,they said it was boring,but since he has retired now and Hamilton has come in,i think he has given F1 a breath of fresh air

its a shame Massa didnt win,but i suspect he will win one in the future,i am also sure that Hamilton will be a championship winner again,i didnt agree with Hamilton getting points stripped off him a few races ago,so i feel that he has deserved this...just a shame he keeeps getting abuse all the time,Brazilian crowd booed him,Spanish crowd dressed up as Black people and named themselves 'Hamiltons family'..and he certainly isnt getting any favous from the F1 stewards..so yeah well done Lewis

on the SKY sports forums here in the UK,everyone knows F1 as meaning Ferrari 1st,as in the stewards decisions

as for the same car Mclaren i personally think Kovalainen hasnt been as good as he should...but Ferrari are usually the dominant car...they won the drivers championship after all

Alonso,for some reason in the last 3 or 4 races came out of his shell,beginng and half way he was average,even though everyone knows he is a good driver

here in the UK next year it will be broadcast on BBC1,so no more commercials at vital points in the race(and something i want to watch on the BBC for once)
